It’s not easy to see someone you love ill and unable to take care of themselves. When you find a loved one’s health is declining, you may turn to palliative care at home. Keeping the individual in a place they recognize will be easier on them and their families. If you’re not sure what to expect from palliative care at home, keep on reading. 

Undivided Attention 

By choosing palliative care at home, you’re providing the individual with undivided attention and one-on-one time. In a nursing home, hospital or long-term care facility, the nurses and personal support workers are there to help and assist without needing to tend to other patients at the same time. 

More Privacy 

Receiving home care is not only easier for the patient, but being in the comfort of their own home gives a sense of privacy that they may not have gotten at a hospital or nursing home. When a loved one has health issues and can no longer care for themselves, the security of being in their own space with the help they need will keep them at peace. 

Flexible Schedules 

With at-home palliative care, nurses and personal support workers are available to you when you need them most. Whether that’s 24/7 or a few hours during the day or night, you can set up a plan for the individual to get the best care possible. 

Affordable Pricing 

Without the extra costs of nursing home accommodations and extra living expenses, palliative care at home can be cost-effective and really help save money. Compared to palliative care in hospital beds or long-term care beds, the cost of in-home care is quite affordable.

Reassurance 

The responsibility of having to care for a sick family member can be taxing and demanding. When you seek out C-Care for help, you’re being reassured that you made the right choice for not only the individual but for you and your family. 

Taking the steps to get palliative care at home will allow the individual to strive in the care of registered nurses. 

Assistance 

When hiring a nurse from C-Care, your loved one will be helped with basic activities and necessities such as transportation, bathing, dressing, and more. This assistance will take the daily task off of the individual’s hand, which will help take the stress off the patient.
